Origins

[Crimson Dynamo]

Will the film makers keep the original back-story behind the Autobots and Decepticons?
What changes should we expect to see when the film is finally released?

What things shouldn't be changed?

[Crimson Dynamo]

Should the Transformers arrive in the Ark?

[GoldGoblin]

I hope the movie doesn't make them man made.

Well, Murphy confirmed that they will have come from Cybertron.

Don't know *how* they got to Earth, though.

Personally, I kinda hope they drop the crash-landed on Earth millions of years ago-thing, mostly because those "millions of years" are murder on continuity.

I wouldn't mind the Decepticons arriving in disguise on Earth to plunder our energy and the Autobots following them or something.

The crash-landing and deactivation can still work, I suppose, just shorten the period of time from 4 million years to something reasonable.

optimus should arrive by him self to earth possibly wounded to be discovered by sam/spike, the rest of the autobots then join and decpticons follow so the battle ensues on earth, i think its best if they leave the machines not to know of there being and how they were created.

Dont change it if it isnt broke.
